CHURNING
Excessive trading in a client’s account by a broker seeking to maximize commissions, disregarding the client’s best interests. This illegal and unethical act violates SEC rules and securities laws. While it cannot be measured, frequent buying and selling of securities far from the client’s investment objectives may be considered churning. It may often lead to substantial losses in the client’s account and may incur a tax liability for the individual even if profitable.
